About this listen

This episode we carry on our Carry On odyssey with CARRY ON PILOT (1962); for many people the first "Proper" Carry On film, whatever that means, which is nothing.

But it does contain some of the series' most memorable moments, whether it be Churchill smoking a missile, Joan Hickson sailing over the White Clliffs of Dover in a wooden handbag, Jerry Desmonde giving the finger (as immortalised by Suede on TOTP in 1993) or the ever-popular Bouncing Bum.

But it was dogged by controversy on first release and we finally get to the bottom of whether the leaked audio of a meeting in the Oval Office during the Cuban Missile Crisis really does contain JFK badmouthing Charles Hawtrey! (Spoiler: yes, it really does)
